I, and many other's, really thought the 4 nations tourney, was going to be a glorified allstar break, the players wouldn't really take it like a best on best tourney, ala the olympics, in the middle of the season would they?

But last saturday, when at the opening face off of the first Canada VS USA game, there were 3 fights, it was on!! It was real!!

That was one of the best games of hockey I have seen! 

Then the thursday final...which we all knew would be between Canada and the USA, taking nothing away from Sweden and Finland, but both the US and Canadian teams were stacked!! 

It was intense!!!! eh? 🙂
